Internap DoS attack

[To'mas]

From about 3:30pm to around 4:45pm this afternoon, we experienced a Denial of Service attack on our InterNAP line. The attack was rendered useless when InterNAP cut off the offending traffic at 4:45pm.

Overall, we experienced an influx of between 150 and 200mbps during the attack; this was enough to overwhelm our 100mbps connection at InterNAP.

All the offending traffic seems to have come from Asia, interestingly enough.
